We closed out the meeting as we always do, with free time for the kids to draw or read the graphic novels and comics in our collection.

Our Comics Club is for any 8- through 12-year-old who likes to read, talk about, or draw sequential art. (Not just superheroes either. We love everything from Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh!manga to Amelia Rules to Smileand El Deafo.)

Kids can come to our Main Branch and get new, free issues from top comics publishers, including stories about Pokemon, The Legend of Korra, Grumpy Cat, Sonic the Hedgehog, Spongebob Squarepants, Strawberry Shortcake and more, while supplies last.
